Hello,
I would like to build a search engine using several different languages - 
f.e. Spanish names, French names, ...

- Using a different analyzer for each language would be one solution.

- But how about replacing each special character (Umlaute, ...�, �, ...) 
with its html special character before indexing and doing the same with 
each search query before searching??

This seems to me the simplest approach to handling this issues - ?

What are the drawbacks? No Stem search? Other considerations?

Greetings,
Philipp
